Seamlessly blending modern big room ideas with vintage uplifting vibes, Miika Eloranta and Janne Mansnerus have maintained their pacesetter status at the forefront of the contemporary trance scene.
Having consistently delivered perfectly crafted peak time instrumentals like "L.A." and "Code Red" (alongside label mate Jaytech) in recent years, "No Frontiers" is a bold return to emotive songwriting; the first single to be taken from Super8 & Tab's much anticipated second artist album set for release this Autumn.
The follow up to classic collaboration "My Enemy", "No Frontiers" sees Super8 & Tab reunite with British singer / songwriter Julie Thompson. Charting the chaotic breakdown of an intense love affair, Julie's vocals echo the darkness of the main riff, culminating in a violent and volatile hands-in-the-air breakdown.
Germany's Jerome Isma-Ae takes a more melancholic approach with his progressive rework, keeping the Original's spine tingling moments at its heart. Punctuating the mix with a poignant piano lead, this is yet another club ready remake from one of Above & Beyond's favourite producers.
Dimitri Kechagias review: One of the most authoritative voices in trance is Above & Beyond's stunning label Anjunabeats that is mentioned by many young producers as one of the labels that shaped their sound and has influenced their decision to get into music production. Anjunabeats is the label of continuous success stories at the top of the beatport trance chart as every release is so special and most importantly against the grain, forward thinking tracks that lead the scene rather than following trends. One of the real pioneers and trendsetters in the trance scene are Super8 & Tab from Finland. Their brand new anthem is called No Frontiers and features the heartfelt vocals of one of the best singers in the electronic dance music scene and that is the one and only Julie Thompson. The original mix starts all chunky, groovy, electro trancy with grungy dirty edges. The track becomes more mellow and sweet from the moment that Julie's heavenly vocal is introduced and wins our hearts instantly. Her power to ignite the crowds with her incredible performance becomes the main element of this awesome vocal anthem. The breakdown brings to the front the melancholic piano melody, harps, and classical music strings to create the magical soundscape that Julie's voice shine within and cast a spell on you. The euphoric classic uplifting trance synthy stabs appear and you can easily guess the crowd reaction to it. Colourful, euphoric and optimistic synths lead the track to its magnificent crescendo moment that will blow the speakers for sure. Superb collaboration that will land at the number 1 position of the beatport trance chart effortlessly. For me the big surprise is Jerome Isma-ae remix as he presents a much more melodic sound that will crossover to progressive house and progressive trance as well. He applies his well known bouncy groove and the massive deep throbbing bassline while on top he adds some hints of the main melodic theme. The breakdown starts with the piano melody and the hair raising appearance of Julie's vocals followed by the euphoric classic trance synthy stabs. His climax does the surprising twist and rather than going for a less melodic section, he brings back the euphoric synthy theme along with the piano melody on top of his thunderous beats. For the very first time Jerome delivers his full on euphoric progressive version that will enthuse those who play the mainstage sound in case the original sounds too trancy in their ears. #PureDiamond.
